A gyroscope measures orientations and movements in space. Its own rotating dynamics enable relationships in non-static environments to be grasped. This enables orientation and navigation. In a small group, we construct a metaphysical gyroscope for a realistic and critical understanding of rural areas.
Spaces structure actions and perceptions in complex ways. Rural areas also produce their own characteristics through imagination, emotion, practices, ideologies and materiality. How can such rural topologies be captured, understood, and transformed?
To this end, we are forming a small, transdisciplinary learning and working group that goes beyond one-off formats. We each bring our own topics and explore them together. By using our respective empirical material, we will get closer to developing theories and methods for understanding rural areas.
